F.T. really blows the big one. There staff are a bunch of morons and have no clue abut what they are selling. There all about getting the customer to but the fish whatever it takes to make the sale. Sorry to say it but it had to be done. The only knowledgable one there only works on sat. so go figure!!!!!!

Your not saying anything that hasn't been said already. If you know what your looking for and you know your stuff they're a great place to get things because they're cheap and they get a lot of rare stuff. If your looking for help and guildence they're not the place to go to.

as ussual marrone you are right on the money.!!

but there are some manhattan reefers that work in FT that remain anonomous. and they wont tell you that. But I know who they are..

There really cheap yeah, but they don't take care of there fish or coral. I went in one day to purchase an elegant coral and it had been there for a while and had been doing good so I decided to buy at $89 and take the chance. Then I brought to goby's three striped the one's that are on speed! Anyway I get to the cashier and paid I watched him throw the elegant into the bag and told me to have a nice day! Answer me this I just spent over $100 plus you think they would have the common sense to be a little careful with such a sensitive coral? And that fat bastard "jorge" the one that's doing the owners daughter that brown nose a** wipe couldn't find himself out of a plastic fish bag if he had directions. I'm sorry about being so blunt but it just kills me that there still have so much volume in customers when you see how they do business. Well got that off my chest! Thanks for listening guys just I missed angermanagement class thisk week due to the hoilday. Happy new year Guy's

can anyoen spell OUCH!!??

i thought i had a bad experience but WOW!!

he must have been more screwed over then me.!!

i cant attest for the corals but regarding the fish-- I do know that they do quarantine some of there fish and they also acclimate there fish downstairs. i have personally seen there system. Again most people here know what happened to me but they are ok with there fish IMO. overall they are a business and they do what they have to. not excusing that but you do have to have some common sense when dealing with the fish for example never buy a fish that doesnt eat etc.

you get my drift
